Pietro Pilla

This week’s selection mainly includes many watches that are off the beaten path. The famous independent MB&F and the very popular Furlan Marri are just an example. There is also a celebratory edition of a watchmaking heavyweight that oozes elegance and design from every angle. Leaving you with the ten selected releases from the past seven days, we wish you a good start to the upcoming week!

  • This bold and robust timepiece certainly won’t go unnoticed despite the black stealth look.
  • With a 41.5 mm case and a water resistance of 100 metres, its sporty intentions are made clear.
